After a short survey, that gives us 74% evolutionists and about 8% creationists. Another 8% are very unorthodox variations of evolutionists.
schrafinator, I challenge your statement about we creationists being humourless. I consider myself a very funny fundy. Sorry...

...who have posted in this thread. Given that it's largely about self-aggrandizement many of the more Chrisitan posters may not have felt it humble to sound off about their own position or beliefs, so I can already imagine some response bias, here.
I mean I can think of at least 5-6 creationists that are regular, active posters currently, and haven't posted on this thread. So there's clearly a bias at work.

1 born naked,
2 indoctrination into shame cult of Xtian creationism by parents fails miserably,
3 discovered sex magick (becoming an apprentice wizard rather early),
4 realized sex magick has nothing to offer in way of gaining knowledge (just power), but points to openmindedness on matters of polytheism and general creationism,
6 read the satanic bible (a laugh) and the necronomicon (discovered Cthulhu's star won't rise for a while so for practical reasons dismiss his cult for possible enlistment in azathoth or nyarlothotep's),
5 while mistakenly attending a Xtian affiliated university, discovered modern philosophy as shaped by DeCartes and Hume are best instruments to approach knowledge (gave up mental masturbation for full mental coitus forever),
6 evolution best explanation for speciation, with several mechanisms still not properly fleshed out,
7 abiogenesis- a separate topic- not formed enough for me to fully accept,
8 crick's theory of panspermia and my science teacher's theory of stardust eerily mirror the well fleshed out theory of life created on earth by the Old One's after migration through space and time (in addition Lovecraft correctly described nature of radiation, the sea floor, and continental drift before their acceptance by modern science, could he be right again?),
9 attempts to contact Old Ones, Deep Ones, and Cthulhu fail (perhaps Cthulhu can explain his lack of returning call... and dead asleep is no excuse),
10 graduate education in chemistry and then geochemistry help make abiogenesis more accessible as a plausible theory,
11 began worship of Dan and MrHambre as powerful alien entities akin to Cthulhu, Charles Bukowski, or the cast of Monty Python... again this has little to do with knowledge about the universe, but puts a smile on my face just as well as a good toss at the wrist (ie a basic sex magick cantrip)
I think this adds up to my being an agnostic atheist evolutionist abiogenesist with a twist of polymorphous polytheistic perversion.

Hey, I work nights, so I'm up at weird times. And all my friends went off to graduate school on two different coasts so now I don't have anybody to talk to but you all. Sorry, but I have to get social interaction somewhere...
(Is it really 74%? Or are you just making that up?)

Only 14% of EVCForum participants realize that MrHombre just makes up his statistics on the spot.

He was making it up, a clear factoid (not to be confused with a factino). However, you do make up a goodly percentage of the better posts. Congrats!

I did check out the message number stats.
From 3/10/03 (the day Crashfrog registered) thru 9/22/03, the frogster has posted 7.25% of the messages. Really.
That would be an average of 8.56 messages a day, over 186 days.
